We had some reports from some tough anglers who made the hike into the Virginias yesterday. They reported 2 or 3 feet of snow on the ice and it sounds like the ice is around 6 or 7 feet thick. They punched 8 or 10 holes around the lake and spent most of the day up there unfortunately with no success. As the weather warms up and the snow and ice get melted more the fishing should get better up there.
